Judges shortlisted Katrina after seeing her biography and promotional video.

The two-minute video and short biography will make up 50 per cent of Katrina’s final score. The other 50 per cent comes from a public vote, which Katrina hopes readers will help her win.

Katrina said: “In order to bring this award back to Hull, our very own City of Culture, I need the people of Hull to get behind this and support me.

“I would love to bring the award back and put our city on the map.”

Katrina was nominated by her group members

One of Katrina’s regular clients, Sue Baker, said: “Katrina has amazing skills as a dance and keep fit teacher. Her joyous classes are welcoming, whatever your experience or skills, and for me she’s been really effective – not only reducing my blood pressure but also lifting my spirits.”
